Hi,
I create this post to catch your attention on a thread that I created on the forum demonstrating how to use GdPicture.NET in WPF application.
- Using GdViewer in a WPF Window
- Converting a GdPicture image to a BitmapSource object, and uses the JpegBitmapEncoder to subsequently save the BitmapSource to a jpegfile.
- Using GdPictureImaging from code side.
You will be able to download a standalone application explaining these 3 scenarios.
See:
http://forums.gdpicture.com/gdpicture-net-wpf-applications-f52/using-gdpicture-net-wpf-application-t3187.html
We should release soon pure WPF controls that will takes profit of the Direct3D API.
Cheers !
Loïc
